A cold front shifting south through west central and southwest Florida later today will bring increasing chances for showers and thunderstorms. Rapidly increasing atmospheric moisture will allow for some areas to see prolonged periods of heavy rain with high rain totals and localized flooding possible. Additionally, a few of the stronger thunderstorms will be capable of producing damaging winds or an isolated tornado. ...FLOOD IMPACT... Locally heavy rainfall is expected. The heavy rain will produce flooding of low lying and poor drainage areas as well as the ponding of water on roadways. Motorists should exercise caution. ...MARINE IMPACTS... As a cold front shifts south through the area tonight, winds over the eastern Gulf of Mexico are expected to increase to around 20 knots or greater during the early evening, producing advisory level conditions that will continue overnight. These winds will create hazardous boating conditions for small craft operators. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday. ...EXCESSIVE COLD IMPACT... A much colder airmass will arrive across the region for the upcoming weekend. Temperatures are expected to drop into the 30s to the north of the I-4 corridor Saturday night, with a few spots to the north of Brooksville approaching freezing toward dawn on Sunday. Patchy frost is also possible across the Nature Coast Saturday night. An even colder night is anticipated for Sunday night into early Monday morning. Temperatures dropping into the middle and upper 30s are expected to expand well south of the I-4 corridor over inland locations, with most of the Nature coast dropping into the lower and middle 30s. Locations north of Brooksville have a greater potential for a period of sub-freezing temperatures. Lighter winds Sunday night will also promote areas of frost development for locations with temperatures in the 30s. ...RIP CURRENT IMPACT... An enhanced risk of stronger and more frequent rip currents is expected to develop along the beaches of west-central and southwest Florida on Saturday. Conditions for rip currents will subside during Sunday. ...MARINE IMPACTS... Advisory level winds over 20 knots will continue through the day on Saturday before slowly improving Saturday night and Sunday. After a brief lull in the winds, another frontal passage on Tuesday will bring winds back up to near advisory levels. These winds will create hazardous boating conditions for small craft operators. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotters should monitor the weather and self activate if needed. Fleming
